YAPC is "yet another Perl conference", with apologies to The Perl Conference. This is
an inexpensive (€99 for 3 days) conference with its roots in the
Perl Mongers Perl users groups. YAPC
is driven from the bottom up, organized by and for Perl users -- a
grassroots conference.

YAPC began as a smaller, regional version of TPC in the Eastern USA,
hosted by Carnegie Mellon University,
and has become a series of conferences
held in multiple areas of the globe, all aimed at bringing together the
Perl community in an accessible manner.

Last year, YAPC Europe took place in Munich, Germany while YAPC America was held
in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
